<blockquote>"What you see in one community in Ohio is that the women snap. They go out and they gather in front of a saloon and they go down on their knees and they start praying, blocking the entrance praying, which is this act of radical civil disobedience but that is also completely within the parameters of accepted female behavior. And the movement takes off like wildfire." <cite>Catherine Murdock, historian</cite></blockquote>
